Borealis Borstar FB1460 Hot Sale HDPE Resin
Borealis Borstar FB1460 is a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) film grade produced using the proprietary Borstar bimodal technology.
Physical Properties
- Density: Per ISO 1183, the density is 0.946 g/cc (0.0342 lb/in³), providing a measure of the material’s mass per unit volume under standard conditions.
- Melt Flow (190°C, 5.00 kg): ISO 1133 specifies a melt flow rate of 0.20 g/10 min under a 5.00 kg (11.0 lb) load at 190°C (374°F), indicating moderate flowability during processing.
- High Load Melt Index (190°C, 21.6 kg): Tested via ISO 1133, the high load melt index is 6.0 g/10 min with a 21.6 kg (47.6 lb) load at 190°C (374°F), reflecting improved flow under higher stress.
Polymer Properties:
- Base Material:High – Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
- Modification Features
- Incorporates antioxidant, enhancing long – term stability and resistance to degradation.
- Bimodal polyethylene structure ensures a unique balance of properties, combining superior physical attributes with excellent processability.
- Facilitates easy extrusion, enabling efficient manufacturing of films.
- Yields strong and stiff films with high consistency, providing good structural integrity.
- Demonstrates excellent draw – down, impact strength – stiffness balance, and bubble stability during processing.
Applications:
Borstar FB1460 is designed for applications where high mechanical performance and durability are non-negotiable.
Its balanced properties make it a go-to material for a variety of film products, including:
- Packaging Films: Its high strength and stiffness are excellent for general-purpose packaging films and heavy-duty industrial liners.
- Bags and Sacks: It is a prime choice for exclusive carrier bags (shopping bags) and heavy-duty shipping sacks where tear and puncture resistance are critical to prevent product loss.
- Food Contact Films: The grade is certified to comply with food contact regulations in most countries, making it suitable for a wide range of food packaging applications.
- Co-extrusion: It is well-suited for use in mono- and co-extruded films, allowing it to be combined with other materials to create multi-layered films with a tailored balance of properties.
